Public comment for August 7 Council meeting
Bob Mittelstaedt <[email protected]>
Sat 8/3/2024 9:28 AM
To:Fairfax Town Council <[email protected]> This is a long overdue plea to members of the public to comport themselves with civility and to exercise a modicum of discretion in picking their battles when addressing the Town Council at its meetings.
To put it mildly, It is tiresome and counter-productive for a small gang of three or four men to berate the Council on multiple items at nearly every meeting. They are so indiscriminate in their diatribes and so rude and overbearing in their style that they cannot possibly have any expectation that anyone will take their comments seriously. Often, their comments have little if anything to do with the topic at hand. If there were any weight to any of their rantings it would be lost on the audience which wants nothing more than for their 2 or 3 minutes to be up.
A psychologist would have a field day observing how these men feed off each other, smiling and seeking approval from each other as they each seek to be more obnoxious than the previous one -- all for no apparent purpose than to entertain themselves. It would be disparaging of children to say that their conduct is childlike. Their conduct certainly isn't designed to be persuasive. If there were any validity to anything they say, it would be hidden under their toxic method of presentation.
They make these meetings unpleasant not just for the Council members but for all other members of the public who have legitimate points to make on selected items. As a result, I observe that there is generally less public participation at Fairfax town council meetings than at the other council meetings I have been attending around the county.
The First Amendment is an integral building block of our society. But it should not be used as a bludgeon to inhibit others from participating in public discourse. Public comment time is not a sporting event, and should not be used as a substitute for legitimate entertainment.
Berating and yelling at council members apparently make this gang feel good in some perverse way. But it is never persuasive, and it's not fair to the rest of the public who have serious matters to discuss with the council.
I commend the Mayor, ViceMayor and council members on their tolerance for this objectionable and inexcusable conduct. But would it be possible, at a minimum, to turn down the microphone for anyone who is yelling? Absent that, I guess the next best thing is for me to walk out during their tirades . . . . https://www.ebikeaccess.org
Fire Hazard 195 Pine Drive - dangerous site
[email protected] <[email protected]>
Sun 8/4/2024 8:54 AM
To:Fairfax Town Council <[email protected]> Hello,
My neighbor's and I are gravely concerned about the fire hazard and contamination caused by the collapsed house at 195 Pine Drive.
We contacted the Ross Valley Fire Department which kindly came out and cut down the brush around the house.
That will help somewhat to mitigate the fire hazard, but the problem of the dry board piled up like kindling remains an active fire hazard.
I re-contacted the fire department last week but have had no response.
How can we proceed with due haste?
Fire season is early, and much worse, this year. I believe the site needs to be condemned immediately and the debris removed right away.
We are asked every year to remove plants that are close to our homes, yet this glaring, obvious and large fire hazard is allowed to remain.
Should we as good Samaritans begin to remove the dry wood ourselves? We are getting a bit desperate.
Please help!
Best regards,
Connie Valentine

Dear Council-members,
I do not support any bond.
You and staff should be able to
maintain the road surface with the money that is already in the budget.
Keep your eyes on what is necessary for the Town and get rid of all the unnecessary, wasteful spending and a bloated staff.

Based on an apparent lack of provision of important public disclosures on a timely basis, I am asking you to pull Agenda Item #4 from the 8/07/2024 Fairfax Town Council Meeting, todd greenberg <[email protected]>

Re: Based on an apparent lack of provision of important public disclosures on a timely basis, I am asking you to pull Agenda Item #4 from the 8/07/2024 Fairfax Town Council Meeting,
Dear Fairfax Town Council Members,
Re: Based on an apparent lack of provision of important public disclosures on a timely basis, I am asking you to pull Agenda Item #4 from the 8/07/2024 Fairfax Town Council Meeting,
4. Waive Second Reading and Approval of Ordinance No. 890 Ordering the Submission of a Measure Incurring Bonded Indebtedness to the Voters at the November 2024 General Municipal Election and Adoption of the Resolution Ordering an Election and Placing a Bond Measure on the November 2024 Ballot – Town Manager Heather Abrams and Town Attorney Janet Coleson
Supplement
Please review the below email(s) which was(were) sent to Deputy Town Clerk Christine Foster, Elected Town Clerk Michele Gardner, and Finance Director Michael Vivrette, and the PRA that was made for relevant information.
How can a Town Council Member vote for the Town of Fairfax to spend significant amounts of public monies without full public disclosure of those costs?
Does voting to authorize undisclosed amounts of spending on the proposed (Town of Fairfax Manager estimated) $40 Million Bond Measure without public full and proper timely disclosure of all involved costs violate any rules, ethics, or laws? Does voting on this Agenda Item #4 without full proper public disclosure violate any Fiduciary Duties a Fairfax Town Council member may have? Given that this important information has not been provided with sufficient time for both Town Council Members and the Public to reasonably be aware of and make comments on, I urge you to not vote on this matter at tonight's Fairfax Town Council Meeting.
Instead i suggest that Fairfax Town Council continues the Agenda Item to the next Regular Fairfax Town Council Meeting which would normally be held on the 1st Wednesday of each month, which would be Wednesday, September 4, 2024, but for some unknown reason is not currently listed on the Town of Fairfax website.
Alternately, if need be, noting that it (and the related costs of the "Special Meeting") would not otherwise be needed if public disclosures had been made on a timely basis, call a "Special Meeting", on another date, to discuss the "Waiving of the 2nd reading" re the proposed Bond Measure, only after complete costs disclosures have been made with adequate notice to the public and opportunity to publicly comment.
I am sincerely concerned about:
1) how this ill conceived, proposed $18 Million face value, estimated $40 Million after 32 or 33 years of interest Bond Offering, and related Agenda items have been and are being handled
2) how the Town Council is going forward with putting the Bond Offering on the November Ballot, despite the Town's $32,690 Survey indicating that the largest ever in Fairfax Bond Measure is unlikely to pass, 3) how this is being done in an non-transparent manner without timely provision of what should be publicly presented and publicly available documents detailing the complete Bond Offering Costs, ie: Bond Consultant, Bond Disclosure, Election Costs, Note that the requests have been made numerous times, both informally and formally, and via PRA..
I hope for all Fairfaxian's, that you will provide this needed information on a timely basis, prior to voting on this as Town Council Members, and, in the future, provide much greater transparency and follow the highest standards of best governance practices.
Most Sincerely,
Todd Greenberg

Please provide the requested Bond Offering Costs right away, today, well before the Agenda Item #4 vote at tonight's Fairfax Town Council Meeting
Good Morning Deputy Clerk Christine Foster, Elected Town Clerk Michele Gardner, and Finance Director Vivrette, I am puzzled by the below responses to my 7/24/2024 PRA, which frequently state, "No documents responsive to your request have been located" or similar.
Please help me and others and Fairfax voters and Fairfax taxpayers to understand this seeming lack of disclosure of Town of Fairfax financially related documents prior to the Town Council vote this evening on Agenda Item #4.
Is this because you didn't have sufficient time to research ALL communications related to the Bond Consulting Company named in the Staff Reports and any other Bond Consulting Companies that were considered? How can there be "no documents" related to the selection of and costs related to a Town of Fairfax staff report listed, Bond Consulting company?
Is the "No documents responsive to your request have been located" response occurring because a very narrow interpretation of my request is being used, rather than understanding what information is being asked for? Was i somehow not sufficiently clear as to what information is being asked for? It simply doesn't make sense that the Town of Fairfax has chosen a Bond Consulting company and a Bond Disclosure Attorney and the Town Council is going to vote tonight, at the 8/07/2024 Fairfax Town Council Meeting re Agenda Item #4 to place an estimated $40 Million Bond Measure, Fairfax's largest ever Bond Measure, on the November ballot, without disclosure of at least 3 of the costs involved:
1, Bond Consulting Company charges and fees of any type, direct or indirect (and contract and related communications, internal or external)
2. Both known and/or estimated Legal Charges related to the Bond Offering (and related communications, internal or external)
3. any other known and/or estimated costs to the Bond Measure on the ballot (and related communications, internal or external)
Please help me and others to understand why this information that clearly does exist in some form, is not being provided.
Regarding your response to question number 8 below;
8. Please provide all billing amounts and invoices paid to date, received but not yet paid, and or due or obligated to be paid related to the Town's proposed Bond offering. Documents responsive to this request have been located and will be provided on a rolling basis.
Please send those responsive documents to me now, today, ~ 8 hours prior to tonight's 6:30pm meeting on which the putting this $40 Million Bond offering on the November ballot is to be voted on (see Agenda Item #4)?
4. Waive Second Reading and Approval of Ordinance No. 890 Ordering the Submission of a Measure Incurring Bonded Indebtedness to the Voters at the November 2024 General Municipal Election and Adoption of the Resolution Ordering an Election and Placing a Bond Measure on the November 2024 Ballot – Town Manager Heather Abrams and Town Attorney Janet Coleson
Supplement
Please also post the prior requested Bond Offering related costs on the Town's website ASAP so that Town Council members and the public can be made aware of the costs involved in the proposed bond offering before a vote is taken.
Please provide this essential Bond Offering related costs information as an additional supplement to the existing materials, for Agenda Item #4, right away or ASAP today, since the clock is ticking before the vote tonight.
For reasons unknown, late disclosures do seem to be frequent in the Town of Fairfax, ie: the supplement to the 7/17/2024 meeting which belatedly disclosed the Bond Offering's estimated $40 Million costs. Why was this important information left out of the original staff report?
I do see that a "supplement" has been added to this Agenda Item #4 for tonight, but it doesn't contain the requested, essential to know prior to a public vote, information about the costs of the Bond Offering. I believe that it is wrong to impose these or other unspecified costs on the Town of Fairfax residents.
The response below to question
#13. Please list all other Bond Consulting companies that were contacted, dates contacted, and describe the selection process for Urban Futures. "No documents responsive to your request have been located." Seems to indicate that there was no selection process for a Bond Consulting company and that no other Bond Consulting or similar type companies were contacted or considered. I find this hard to believe.
Isn't there a requirement that certain government contracts receive multiple bids? or does that somehow not apply in this circumstance? if it doesn't apply, please explain fully.
I am sincerely concerned about the lack of transparency in Fairfax, Please do the right thing and provide for transparency with Town of Fairfax public documents.
Please provide the requested information right away.
Thank you for a prompt response today.
Best Regards,
Todd Greenberg
